Dude you are so clueless!

The ONLY reason that most don't specify ME TPIC is because that would disqualify a few marine fighter pilots and a very large percentage of USAF fighter pilots.

While a single-engine civilian might technically meet the minimums at certain major airlines, that does NOT mean they will be competetive. I looked into this years ago when I had such an opportunity.

FWIW, I suspect that PC-12/TBM700 time would be SLIGHTLY better than caravan time if it came down to it...due to higher speeds and pressurization.

If you're thinking that this will be a stepping stone to the majors, please do some research first.
